Topic: DATABASE ERROR : could not retreive quick entries

Here is one I just got when I hit the Journal Entry in Banking and GL, I have not looked at the DB yet...

DATABASE ERROR : could not retreive quick entries
error code : 1054
error message : Unknown column 'type' in 'where clause'
sql that failed was : SELECT id FROM 0_quick_entries WHERE type='3'

What do think?

Re: DATABASE ERROR : could not retreive quick entries

This is a strange error. In FA 2.1.X the table for quick entries is:

### Structure of table `0_quick_entries` ###

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `0_quick_entries`;

CREATE TABLE `0_quick_entries` (
  `id` smallint(6) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
  `type` tinyint(1) NOT NULL default '0',
  `description` varchar(60) NOT NULL,
  `base_amount` double NOT NULL default '0',
  `base_desc` varchar(60) default NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY  (`id`),
  KEY `description` (`description`)
) TYPE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=4 ;


### Data of table `0_quick_entries` ###

INSERT INTO `0_quick_entries` VALUES ('1', '1', 'Maintenance', '0', 'Amount');
INSERT INTO `0_quick_entries` VALUES ('2', '4', 'Phone', '0', 'Amount');
INSERT INTO `0_quick_entries` VALUES ('3', '2', 'Cash Sales', '0', 'Amount');

So the type should be there. Please check your db structure.
There should be no changes in 2.2 Beta for the quick entries (only a small change in quick entry lines regarding tax)

Re: DATABASE ERROR : could not retreive quick entries

Thanks Joe

I took a look at the data base, and the table was empty? Got no idea how this could have happened, but with the three rows, or records added it works.

Thanks
